If its powrflow you wont get performance, id rather get a prpoer decat pipe from magnex mate

Alot of people will tell you bad things about Powerflow dealers, how many of these have had first hand expeience with Powerflow is unclear.

I shouldnt see why they would have problems with a simple straight through centre section but before you make a booking, check on www.kam-racing.com as Supersprint do two straight through centre sections for the saxo one is just a simple boxless pipe the other also replaces the cat.

Look into prices as you could end up paying more for a custom job when you could have bought a direct fitting item for less.

Hope that helps

I dont tend to agree with statements that All custom exhaust will not gain you any performance. Most problems in custom exhausts are the boxes that people pick, ie straight through big jap style cans which when matted with say a straight through cat back system could badly effect back pressure in the system and lower performance.

As long as a decent box is choosen and bends are not visous 90' bends I cant see how a custom exhaust would produce much less that a off the shelf sports exhaust.

it will be better quality than pooerflow imo

went to the local garage the other day to get my centre pipe made/fitted. have to say...makes the magnex sound nice

. still not overly loud but noticeable, but at the same time keeps the looks of the magnex b/box! welding and other fittings seem to look quite good at the moment. will keep you posted on any problems i have (if any!)
